White Lotus Home, based in New Brunswick, New Jersey, has handmade futons in the USA since 1981, and the Green Cotton and Wool Dreamton is its mid-priced natural futon. The core is Green Cotton, grown in the US and not certified organic, with no dyes, perfumes or flame retardants, wrapped in natural wool that White Lotus says is never treated with chemicals. The maker describes the feel as medium firm, firmer than its organic cotton but softer than its Boulder Dreamton line. With no springs, the futon does not transfer motion, and White Lotus says it can sit on a bi-fold or tri-fold futon frame, a platform bed or the floor, with slats no more than 2 to 2.5 inches apart. It lists a 10+ year lifespan. The practical downsides are weight and upkeep. A full is 5 inches thick yet weighs 80 to 90 lbs, so folding it daily takes effort, and cotton slowly compresses. From $771.00 when we checked, it costs more than the EcoSupport.
